Today I want to talk about my Friend JoJo!

JoJo quit smoking on November 1ST, 2010 just after her Dear Mother passed away from lung cancer - May she rest in peace!

She had late stage COPD at just 53 Years young after smoking 2 packs a day for 40 Years! On May 16, 2012 she was listed for a lung transplant and June 28 she got her new lung! Yes, just one but still a huge miracle!

If you don't know that she struggled just like you and I have, go to her page and read her blogs! Tissues are required but smoking is NOT!
